The steel-clad facade of the 92,000-square-foot building swoops in and over itself, creating a welcoming arch on the ground floor and balconies above. Inside, visitors can take in shows in a 75-seat black box theater, a 225-seat recital room, a 250-seat flex space for performing arts, and a 750-seat all-purpose theater, complete with an orchestra pit. For visual arts, the main lobby doubles as a 2,500-square-foot art gallery, with ceiling rigs to suspend larger works. In the daytime, tall glass windows invite students to lounge, study, and enjoy the space.

The $70 million project broke ground in August 2015 and construction wrapped earlier this year.
